The term "Proportion" might be to describe the change in size of a pattern, or say a dress, to make it fit a larger or smaller person. As the size of the waist increases, most other measurements of the pattern would also have to increase in proportion. If you just increased the waist, other parts wouldn't fit together. But you wouldn't necessarily add an inch to the hips if you added an inch to the waist. Another example also might be the need to possibly lengthen a skirt length as the size increases or shorten it if the size decreases. Proportions vary with styles and change with the fads. Another use of "Proportion" could be "In the eye of the designer." Say you had a large ruffle around a neckline. It might look out of proportion if it were too large or wasn't "balanced" by another element of the design.
The four concepts of dressmaking are silhouette, fit, balance, and proportion. Silhouette refers to the overall shape of the garment, fit involves how well the garment conforms to the body, balance ensures that the design elements are visually distributed, and proportion relates to the relationship between different parts of the garment.
